Emir Muhammad Sanusi Removed

In what looks like he who owns the piper dictates the tune,  Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II who was the 14th Emir of Kano from the Fulani Sullubawa clan has been removed by The governor of the State of KANO, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje OFR.

Both Ruler have been at logger head for a while but it seems the Ruler with higher authority wins the tussle. 

After the confirmation of the news, it was taken the country as storm. The State government has now released press conference to defend their part: 

The Emir of Kano is in total disrespect to lawful instructions from the office of the State Governor and other lawful authorities, including his persistent refusal to attend official meetings and programmes organised by the Government without any lawful justification which amount to total insubordination. 

It is on record and in so many instances Malam Muhammad Sanusi II has been found breaching part 3 section 13 (a-e) of the Kano State Emirate Law 2019 and which if left unchecked will destroy the good and established image of the Kano Emirate.

This removal is made after due consultation with the relevant stakeholders and in compliance with part 3 section 13 of the Kano State Emirate Law 2019 and other reasons stated above.

The removal was reached in order to safeguard the sanctity, culture, tradition, religion and prestige of the Kano Emirate built over thousand years.
His Excellency, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje OFR calls on the general public to remain calm, law abiding and to go about their normal businesses. While a new Emir of Kano Emirate will soon be appointed.
Thank you.
